BIRD ON A WIRE
By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com
MIDDLEBURY Ñ Only in Vermont can you find horsedrawn, curbside trash and recycling pick-up service. Yup, for over 17 years, Pat and Cathy Palmer of Tornapple Farm in Bristol, Vt., have been picking up trash and recycling the old fashioned way. They even leave behind a few old-fashioned equine calling cards, too, but they’re quick to pick ‘em up with a pan and broom. Now the enterprising Vermont couple have brought their retro touch from the Bristol to Middlebury. Consider yourself one of the lucky ones if the Palmers take out your trash because it’s the only service of its kind in the USA. In Middlebury, the Palmers are providing portions of the town with hauling service twice a week. When Casella’s waste and recycling hauling contract ended in Middlebury earlier this year, the Palmers jumped in to successfully get a piece of the action. Now on Mondays and Tuesdays, you can watch teamster Amanda Morse join her crewmates—Pat Palmer and Nick Hammond—take Thornapple Farm’s one-ton, French Percheron draft horses, pulling a nifty, rubber-tire wagon, around town. Mondays find the crew on Middlebury’s west side and on the east side on Tuesdays. CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Members of the Middlebury Fire Department responded to a power outage at McDonald’s on U.S. Route 7 in Middlebury June 11. A wayward bird on a wire caused the power failure. Department inspectors climbed on to the roof of the restaurant to inspect it for possible electrical damage. Meanwhile, a fender bender in front of McDonald’s, at the same time, caused a traffic backup which included MUHS and MUMS school buses in the mix. Photo by Lou Varricchio
NY manhunt spills into Vermont By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com
Authorities have received information that the pair of inmates who escaped from a maximum security prison last week may have eyed Vermont as a possible cool-off destination. Pictured above: Gov. Andrew Cuomo (right) briefs members of the press on joint law enforcement operations between Vermont and New York on Wednesday, June 10 at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora. Photo by Teah Dowling
DANNEMORA — The pair of escaped killers who escaped from a maximum security prison last weekend may have slipped into Vermont. Govs. Peter Shumlin and Andrew Cuomo said last week that authorities have uncovered evidence that the pair of killers may have eyed the Green Mountain State as a possible destination. “We have information that suggests that they thought New York was going to be hot; Vermont would be cooler in terms of law enforcement and that a camp in Vermont might be a better place than New York,” said Shumlin. Shumlin declined to discuss specific details or an exact location. No reports have yet surfaced of the pair appearing in Vermont. The governors did, however, lay out a five-point plan for how the two states will work together in apprehending the escapees, who have now eluded capture for nearly six days. Shumlin said the Vermont State Police has already dispatched a liaison to the command post in Dannemora, while the troop’s technical team has been mobilized to respond to all tips as well CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Farmer keeps on truckin’ with U.S. Army surplus
Celebrating
46 Years of Growing Plants!
MIDDLEBURY — Starting in 2011, Vermont organic dairy farmer Joel Pominville, 54, of Middlebury has purchased two, giant U.S. Army surplus M928 trucks at a government auction held on the Internet. Since then, he hasn’t ever regretted making the move to Uncle Sam’s trucks. The Pominville farm, located on Quarry Road, has been in successful operation since the 1950s; it now includes nearly 1,000 acres. And by all accounts, these previously used M928 vehicles have proved to be among the most reliable trucks ever used on the family farm. Both 22-feet-long bruisers are low-mileage: a 1988 (17,000 miles) and a 1991 model (12,000 miles) are AWD long-bed trooper carrier trucks manufactured to “mil spec” by AM General. Pominville smiles when he said he paid $6.900 for the ‘88 model, and $9,000 for the ‘91 model. Ironically, one of the auctioned trucks happened to be a retired Vermont Army National Guard vehicle, so pick up was easy enough in Chittenden County, Vt. According to Military Today. com, the origin of the Army’s M928 truck began with a similar 5-ton, 6×6 U.S. military model back in the 1970s. It replaced the old M809 model and continues to do yeoman’s work for the Armed Forces. All the newer trucks, much like Pominville’s, use rugged, reliable Cummins and Allison diesel engines—all made proudly in the USA. “The U.S. Government has invested over 100 years of research and development into these trucks,” Pominville noted, “so you know they’re going perform when you need them. The trucks stand up to all kinds of weather and conditions; that’s why they make impres-

sive farm vehicles for us.” Indiana-based AM General, the maker of one of Pominville’s twin M928s, is best remembered by old timers for its former incarnations as the Willys Overland, Kaiser Jeep and Studebaker companies. Today’s Chrysler Jeep has its roots at AM General. Pominville confirmed that there’s a lot of automotive history at AM General. The Midwest company produced U.S. Mail trucks, Willys and Kaiser Jeeps, transit buses, and motor trolleys. A lesser known company, Hirsch, also manufactures troop and cargo trucks for the U.S. military. Pominville said one his Army trucks is, in fact, a Hirsch product. AM General is getting more and more attention from outsiders in the motor vehicle industry—so much so that mighty Mercedes Benz skipped over G.M. and Japanese-owned Toyota to have its new R-class luxury sport utility vehicle built at AM General’s “mil spec” factory in Indiana.

same plant.) A skilled mechanic, Pominville refurbished his trucks for farm use, and repainted them in classic World War II/Korean War-era olive color with a brilliant white star on the cab doors (the Army’s color scheme was originally desert camo for action in the Global War on Terrorism). Being a practical farmer, you’d expect Pominville to tinker with the truck layout; he converted the beds, designed to transport soldiers, to dumpers so he can haul feed for cows. “I’m impressed with the simplicity of these vehicles and the ease of maintenance,” he noted. “For example, all the wheel bearings are the same, the drive trains are interchangeable—and I can buy all the parts I need at NAPA right here in Middlebury.” Another nifty feature displayed in G.I. Joel’s trucks: the vehicles employ self inflating/deflating tires—ideal for Pominville’s muddy spring fields. Aside from being simple, no-nonsense workhorse trucks, there’s also the feeling of fun Pominville has when he climbs into the cab of a M928. ”One day I passed a little boy along the road,” Pominville said. “He saw the truck and his jaw dropped. He ran after me for a ways.” Enough said about the stare factor. Check It Out: To find out where you can find a retired U.S. Army truck at auction via the Internet, see www.govliquidation.com and www. govdeals.com to begin your search.

From the Editor
The state of railroading
I
t all started back in 1831, when the Vermont State Legislature approved the first railroad charter to link Rutland with Whitehall, N.Y. During the early 1800s, Burlington was a lake port while the City of Rutland was viewed as the better place to start a railroad. But even with an official 1831 charter, the speculative Rutland railroad was never built. Vermont has had a long up and down history of railroading. From the steam trains of the early 1800s to today’s diesel-powered freight and passenger trains, more than half of all Vermonters reside within the sound of a locomotive’s whistle-in-the-night. In 1833, the Vermont Central Railroad was born. But like the first Rutland railroad, the first go round of the Vermont Central, too, never moved off paper. For reasons both financial and political, the railroad was stillborn. It took another decade before the second version of the Vermont Central Railroad—this time championed by former Gov. Charles Paine—was chartered as a rail line from Burlington to Windsor on the Connecticut River. Gov. Paine had just left Montpelier when he managed to get the trains rolling in Vermont starting in 1843. Paine accomplished the impossible because he had the charisma, the finances, as well as influential pals in the Green Mountain State’s all-powerful Whig Party. According to the Vermont Historical Society, “Paine became president of the Vermont Central Railroad and made sure that the main line ran through (his hometown of) Northfield and that its rail yards were built there. Paine was forced to resign from the railroad by his stockholders, who blamed him for the financial crisis the company faced in 1852.” In the current issue of our sister publication North Country Living magazine (it’s free and on news stands around our area), you can learn more about the history of railroading at one of Vermont’s hidden gems, the Rutland Railroad Museum. This wonderful little museum is located in the refurbished 1912 Center Rutland Depot, located along the tracks at 70 Depot Ln., right behind the Rutland Center Municipal Building. Look for a sandwich board sign along old Route 4 directing you to Depot Lane. Sure, the Rutland Railroad may be gone, but commercial railroading is alive and well in the Green Mountain State—and the spirit of the rails lives on through the passion and dedication of Vermont railroad buffs volunteering their time and rare collectibles at the Rutland Railroad Museum. Bored? Need something to do this weekend? Why not take a rod trip with the kids or grand kids to the Rutland Railroad Museum? It’s an ideal place to introduce them to our state’s rich railroading past and promising future. The Eagle

Town reviews junk ordinance
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury Select Board held a public hearing May 12 to take comments regarding proposed amendments to the Town of Middlebury Ordinance for the Outdoor Storage of Junk and Junk Vehicles. Police Chief Tom Hanley noted during the hearing that the proposed amendments, which are intended to strengthen the enforcement options available to the Town, offer five key revisions to the current ordinance: a change from criminal to civil enforcement, establishment of maximum and waiver fines, allowing tickets to be written for continuing offenses, a reference to T.24 VSA 1981 allowing uncollected fines/expenses to constitute a lien against the property, and addition of a definition of “interested person” as the individual required to make the complaint. The ordinance will become effective 40 days after adoption; however, if within 40 days of adoption, a referendum petition is filed, the ordinance will not become effective until after the question of repeal is voted.

Hinesburg searching for new town officials By Gail Callahan
HINESBURG — The Town of Hinesburg is poised to begin employment searches for candidates to fill positions at the town hall. In all, Hinesburg officials are looking to fill three positions; an administrative assistant, a part-time zoning administrator and a development review coordinator. Hinesburg Town Administrator Trevor Lashua indicated he was fine-tuning the job descriptions and would likely publish the openings by the middle of June. Lashua indicated he would likely oversee the hiring of the administrative assistant, but search committees would comb through resumes, looking for candidates to interview for the positions. As indicated in town regulations, the Hinesburg Planning Commission would recommend a candidate for the zoning administrator position, and the town Select Board would confirm the choice. The development review coordinator is a new position. The person sitting in the zoning administrator’s seat is replacing long-time Town of Hinesburg employee Peter Erb, who is leaving after 14 years on the job. According to Lashua, the new zoning administrator will oversee enforcement duties and all other tasks associated with that of a zoning administrator. The hourly salary range is expected to fall between $17 to $20 per hour, Lashua said. That financial amount falls in line with the line item in the Hinesburg Municipal budget voters approved at March Town Meeting. Lashua said the town anticipated placing employment ads in

The number varies, depending on what the advertised job is. Erb, Hinesburg’s current zoning administrator, last day on the job is June 30.
Pack the Paramount Food Drive June 26-27 RUTLAND — With local food shelves continuing to see high demand for their services, organizers from WJJR and Green Mountain Power today announced plans for the 2015 Pack the Paramount Food Drive. “Rutland is undergoing a renaissance, but the demand on local food shelves remains high,” said Steve Costello, a Green Mountain Power vice president and event organizer. “The working poor and many elderly residents and young families continue to need a helping hand.” This year’s food drive will take place on Friday, June 26, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturday June 27 from 6 to 11 a.m. The public is encouraged to bring non-perishable food items or monetary donations to the Paramount Theatre on Center Street in Rutland. The goal is to fill every seat in the historic theater with a box or bag of food, symbolizing the hundreds of families who need assistance in the Rutland area. The food will be distributed by BROC, the Rutland Community Cupboard, and the Salvation Army. Organizers are asking student groups, clubs, businesses, co-workers and teams from the Rutland area to gather up food items for donation and deliver them to the Paramount. Local businesses can “adopt a row” by contacting Bonnie O’Rourke at 747-6883. WJJR will broadcast from the theater from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. June 26 and 9 to 11 a.m. June 27. “This community has always taken care of its own, and Pack The Paramount is an opportunity to do just that,” said Terry Jaye, program manager at Catamount Radio. “And it’s a community-building event as much as a community-supporting event.” All types of non-perishable food are appreciated, but certain items are in great demand. Peanut butter, jelly, canned tuna, pasta, pasta sauce, hearty soups, macaroni and cheese, cereal, coffee and tea, instant potatoes, rice and bottled juice are among the most popular. Other needed items include baby food, toilet tissue, paper towels, hygiene products and large-size items for families, which are not as frequently donated, but greatly needed. Cash donations, which will be used to purchase food and other needed items for the participating food shelves, will also be accepted. To learn more about how you can help Pack the Paramount call 747-6883.

River search fails to find purported body BRISTOL — On June 10, a passerby reported something floating in the New Haven River in the area of Bartlett Falls that appeared to look like a body. Vermont State Police Troopers responded to the scene and immediately requested assistance from Bristol Police Department and Bristol Fire Department members. A thorough search of the area was conducted and nothing was found. The search teams checked the area for abandoned vehicles and none were
found. There were no reports of any one missing. On June 11, another thorough search of the area was conducted by Vermont State Police Search and Rescue and Bristol Fire Department members and nothing was found. At this point and time, there is no reason to believe there is a body in the river. Should new information develop, officials of the Vermont State Police said they will respond accordingly.

licenses has many concerned that a weaker standard could make the state an entry point for terrorists seeking a formal I.D. card. In May, top officials at the Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles confirmed that foreign-language ads placed in New York area newspapers advertised help for illegals seeking a driver’s license. While officials didn’t discuss specific cases tied to the ads, emails Watchdog obtained under Vermont’s public records law show fraud cases under investigation as recently as April are directly linked to the ad. On March 19, investigators from the DMV Enforcement and Safety Division learned that Ukrainian and Georgian illegal immigrants were staying in a Bennington apartment while applying for driver’s privilege cards at the local DMV. DMV counter staff grew suspicious when two men arrived at the same time for their written tests and listed the same apartment on their applications. During the exams, one of the applicants was caught using his cell phone, presumably for cheating, and was forced to reschedule. The man complained the cancellation cost him $200. After the immigrants made multiple visits to the branch, DMV staff cancelled an April 7 road test for one of the men after he admitted paying money to use the Bennington apartment. The man ultimately admitted he lived in Brooklyn and worked construction in New York City. Both immigrants appear to have paid a middleman about $1,000 for help obtaining the driver’s privilege cards. When investigators told the men they were likely being taken advantage of and faced potential arrest and contact from U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement for submitting false information, they agreed to cooperate with investigators. The foreign nationals, whose names are redacted in public documents, said they traveled to Vermont after responding to a phone number listed on a Russian ad. In English, the ad reads, “Drivers licenses for illegal immigrants! International lawyer can help illegal immigrants obtain drivers licenses in the U.S. in 45 days. Your status does not matter. You need only a passport from your country and a birth certificate. For inquiries, or to set up an appointment, call this number: 917-704-8412” Upon seeing the ad, the immigrants met with a New Jersey man who instructed them to drive to a Bennington apartment rented in his name, and to gather mail that would be sent to them at the address. They would use the mail as proof of Bennington, Vermont, residency during the application process. One man admitted staying overnight at the apartment on about 10 occasions, mostly to get mail and to take tests at the local DMV branch. The men were to leave the apartment key for others after them. Investigators confirmed the foreign nationals were not the lessees of the Bennington apartment and did not know the property manager.

www.addision-eagle.com During their time in Vermont, the men drove semi-trailer trucks, minus the trailers, raising additional concerns. Nearby residents said the men parked the rigs behind the Bennington apartment. According to the public documents, investigators verified the identities and national origin of the men from a passport, a U.S. visa, and a Social Security card marked as valid only for work with authorization from the Department of Homeland Security. Upon checking names against federal immigration databases, it is believed one of the applicants flew into Juarez, Mexico, in 2011 and entered the United States illegally by crossing the southern border. The other applicant entered the country as student in 2008, but never enrolled. Neither had legal presence in the United States. As for the use of semi-trailer trucks, it is unclear if the men possessed commercial driver’s licenses, which illegal immigrants may not obtain lawfully in any state. According to the property manager of the Bennington apartment, the tenant on file, a U.S. citizen, began renting the space in October 2014. The tenant, who does not live at the address, told the property manager frequent visitors to the apartment are employees — a claim the Ukrainian and Georgian illegals contradict based on their version of events. In meetings with the property manager, investigators learned the lessee is president of an out-of-state used auto sales firm. Investigators soon connected the man with multiple auto businesses, and also to a transport and logistics firm. The U.S Department of Homeland Security has examined the man in the past. As of April, at least nine different people were receiving mail at the apartment. When the tenant requested that the property manager list six occupants listed on the mailbox, the manager refused. Investigators said they expected many new license applicants due to such arrangements. Despite the apartment’s revolving occupancy, investigators may have found one semi-regular occupant at the address. That person, a naturalized citizen as of 2012, also may be tied in with immigration fraud. In November, Border Patrol at Newport, Vermont, apprehended the man during an attempted smuggling incident. He was not prosecuted by the U.S. Attorneys Office, however. Investigators believe they have enough evidence to prove the two foreign nationals are not Vermont residents. As of mid-April, investigators had not met with the other people targeted to receive mail at the Bennington apartment. It’s unclear what contact, if any, state and federal investigators have with the tenant. Last week, Vermont Watchdog reached out to Sue Minter, secretary of the Agency of Transportation, for comment about specific cases related to the foreign-language ad. She did not return our request for an interview. DMV Commissioner Robert Ide told Watchdog he was not aware of cases tied to the Russian-language ad. “I don’t know of any specific cases. It all goes into the anecdotal pile for us,” he said. “I have absolutely no new information, other than we’re putting our fraud investigations in other areas.

as share information with their counterparts across Lake Champlain on an as-needed basis. New York State Police Superintendent Joseph D’Amico said plans have also been formalized to ensure each state can deploy their forces across the border if the need arises. Vermont has already deployed marine assets on Lake Champlain from their headquarters in St. Albans, Williston and the New Haven barracks, while direct patrols along the lake’s borders are ongoing, said Shumlin. Vermont State Police Colonel Tom L’Esperance said the force is also checking campsites and distributing leaflets to those who may not be dialed into what has become an international news story. Dannemora is located about 15 miles from Lake Champlain. “This is no time to panic,” said Shumlin. “It’s a time to be sensible.” Cuomo said he believes the convicts would kill again if confronted. “There’s no reason to believe they wouldn’t do it again,” he said. “They’re going to be more desperate than ever.” News of the boosted security measures was met with mixed reactions across the lake. Marie Hamling, the manager of the Apple Island RV Resort in South Hero, said she was unaware of any increased law enforcement efforts. “This is the first we’ve heard of it,” she said. An employee at the Shelburne Campground, which is located 1.5 miles from the shore of Lake Champlain, said they haven’t received any fliers yet. “We have an officer who patrols the grounds every couple of days, but we have not seen any increased police presence,” said the employee, who did not give their name. In Burlington, North Beach Campground manager Alec Kading said he, too, hasn’t yet noticed any step-up in law enforcement: “It’s doubtful that [the escapees] would come here,” he said. “This is the most densely populated area in Vermont.” Kading said law enforcement has a steady presence on the grounds as part of their regular security. “If we do see them, hopefully we can call the
ONGOING INVESTIGATION State police continue to pursue some 870 leads that have led to large-scale searches near Dannemora as well as Willsboro, a rural farming community located some 40 miles south of Clinton Correctional Facility in neighboring Essex County. “That means looking behind every tree, every rock and inside every structure until we find these men,” said D’Amico. Over 800 state, local and federal law enforcement personnel continued to conduct door-todoor checks on Wednesday in both locations, said D’Amico, while a number of roadblocks remain in the area surrounding the prison. The investigation also continues as to how the inmates escaped from one of the state’s toughest prisons, the first inmates ever to do so from the maximum security wing. Joyce Mitchell, a laundry supervisor at the prison, was charged on June 12 with first-degree promoting prison contraband, a felony, and fourthdegree criminal facilitation, a misdemeanor. Mitchell allegedly provided the inmates with hacksaw blades, chisels, a punch and a screwdriver bit. She remains in custody with bail set at $100,000 cash or $200,000 bond on the felony and $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond on the misdemeanor. She and others may face additional charges as the investigation into the escape continues, said Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie. “It’s possible based on the information we continue to receive,” Wylie told reporters following Mitchell’s preliminary hearing on Monday at the Plattsburgh City Court. D’Amico declined to discuss reports that the prisoners were granted special privileges on a socalled honor block. “It’s just what you read in the media that they were model prisoners,” he said. Authorities asked the public for their continued support throughout the investigation, including seasonal residents who discover something amiss or unusual after returning to their camps or homes after a long absence. Anyone with any information is encouraged to call 518-563-3761 or 1-800-GIVETIP. Tips can also be sent to crimetip@troopers.ny.gov. Teah Dowling and Ryan Edwards contributed to this report

Solid waste plan complies with Vermont state law MIDDLEBURY — The Addison County Solid Waste Management District Board of Supervisors amended its Solid Waste Implementation Plan on May 21 to comply with the new State Solid Waste Plan that was revised to incorporate the mandates of the new Universal Recycling Law (Act 148). Act 148, approved unanimously by the Vermont Legislature, is the most significant change to the solid waste law since 1987. New to the state plan is the Materials Management Plan containing specific performance measures that the District is required to meet. The District will hold two public hearings on the amended SWIP prior to adoption. The purpose of the hearings will be to receive public comments on the proposed amendments to the District’s SWIP prior to adoption. The first public hearing is scheduled for the regular Executive Board meeting on Wednesday, June 10, at 4 p.m. at the ACSWMD Office, 1223 Route 7, in Middlebury. The second public hearing will be held at the District’s regular Board of Supervisors meeting on Thursday, June 18, 2015, at 7:00 PM at the Addison County Regional Planning Commission Office, 14 Seminary St, in Middlebury. Copies of the draft SWIP are available at all Town Clerks’ offices, at the ACSWMD Office, and on the ACSWMD website at www.AddisonCountyRecycles.org. The SWIP is also available upon request by contacting the ACSWMD: 1223 Route 7 South, Middlebury, Vt. 05753, 802-388-2333, or by e-mail at acswmd@acswmd.org.
Horse-drawn trash From page 1
Why use a horse-drawn trash and recycling service? “First, horses are quiet,” said Pat Palmer. “Second, there’s no air pollution, so they’re environmentally sound. Plus we will never have to charge a fuel surcharge.” Teamster Morse enjoys the new route in Middlebury, which started in March. It gets her outdoors and around her passion—horses. “The Percherons, named Miner and Jake, travel slowly, so Pat and Nick can jump off and pick up litter as we go along, helping to keep Middlebury clean. At a trot, they go about 7 mph,” Morse said. “That’s still pretty slow compared to motor vehicles.” Morse said the horses aren’t easily spooked, but driver should still be aware when passing

www.addision-eagle.com the team in town. Sure, some folks complain about Miner’s and Jake’s road apples—heck, it just wouldn’t be Middlebury if someone didn’t complain about life’s minutiae—but most neighbors along the route are thrilled to see the big horses. “Some people ask us for the road apples so they can use them as fertilizer for their gardens,” Morse added. “We also get fresh apples—the ones from trees—and carrots as treats for Miner and Jake. But of course they don’t eat on the job.” Yes, even horses get lunch breaks. When the Thornapple Farm team fill up the big green wagon with trash and recycling, Miner and Jake are directed by Morse to haul the stuff all the way down Court Street and U.S. Route 7 to the Addison County Transfer Station. Then, it’s back on the road, to continue the trash route. “As interest in our horse-drawn service de-
velops, we plan to secure other locations in Middlebury, even retailers,” according to Palmer. Palmer noted that all trash and recycling bags should be 30-gallon size and carried (please don’t drag) to the curbside. And the weight per bag should not exceed 50 pounds. “All trash bags should have one of our trash bag stickers on it,” Palmer added. “Oh, our recycling is free with at least one bag of trash.”
Palmer said that items for recycling must be placed in clear bags or clearly marked as recycling, with all bags tied shut. If you live in the neighborhoods of Middlebury where Thornapple Farm provides its horse-drawn, curbside service, it’s easy enough to have the Miner and Jake—and their twolegged pals—visit your house. You can purchase trash bag stickers for $5 each directly from the Palmers by calling them at 802-388-6232.

Guest Viewpoint
ast week a grand jury indicted six police officers in relation to the death of Freddie Gray. The charges ranged from seconddegree assault to “depravedheart murder”. Mr. Gray lived in Baltimore. He was 25 years old and weighed 145 pounds, with a criminal record of non-violent offenses. He carried a knife in his pocket. Lt. Brian W. Rice is 41 years old, a 17-year-veteran of the Baltimore Police force. Lt. Rice knew Mr. Gray by sight. On April 12 at 8:39 a.m. Lt. Rice and two other police officers were patrolling Mr. Gray’s neighborhood on bicycles. Lt. Rice spotted Mr. Gray walking down the street, and called him by name. The two made eye contact. Mr. Gray turned and ran. Freeze-frame: at that moment in time, was any reaction on the part of the three police officers justified? Let’s take a gander at the good old Constitution. The Fourth Amendment states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons … against unreasonable … seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing … the persons or things to be seized.” The police had no warrant to “seize” the person of Mr. Gray. Seize him they did, however. About an hour later, Mr. Gray was delivered by police van to the hospital with a severe spinal-cord injury, leading to a coma. A week later, he was dead. But surely police can seize people without a warrant? What about the daily clatter and grind of police work, the reality of the mean streets? How can police officers do their very hard job of keeping us safe if they must come to a screeching halt, then race to the courthouse for a warrant? In fact, there are circumstances in which police may legally seize persons without a warrant; but the action must be “reasonable” under the circumstances. But how does a cop on the beat figure that out? Isn’t flight a sign of guilt? Perhaps. The courts will consider flight, among other facts, to determine “reasonableness” of the police officer’s action. Yet we live in a democracy, not a police state. Is each of us obligated to halt and obey simply because the police call our name and tell us to stop? Where is the presumption of innocence, and freedom of movement? What became of the Fourth Amendment? As a rule of thumb, police are not justified in seizing a person without a warrant unless the “circumstances” amount to an emergency, even if the “suspect” is fleeing. Did we hear gunshots? Are flames shooting from windows? Is an unseen person screaming?
The force of law is strongest when law itself coincides with our collective understanding of right and wrong. And what of the lawfulness of deadly force? That is the next question posed by the Gray case. Let’s assume, for the sake of argument, that there was probable cause to believe Mr. Gray was a felon in need of arrest. Does this give the police a free hand to use lethal force? No. As the Supreme Court has said: “It is not better that all felony suspects die than that they escape.” Back to Baltimore. Could Freddie Gray cut and run? Is “eye contact” sufficient trigger for the trigger? In 1985 the Supreme Court told us, in Tennesse v. Garner: “Where the officer has probable cause to believe that the suspect poses a threat of serious physical harm, either to the officer or to others, it is not constitutionally unreasonable to prevent escape by using deadly force.” Unless we believe that Mr. Gray commanded the evil eye, he posed no such threat at 8:39 on April 12, with or without a record, with or without a knife in his pocket, with or without fleeing. No flames, no gunshots, no screams – until his own, as he was being dragged into the police van. The populations of the State of Vermont and the City of Baltimore are roughly the same: about 620,000 souls. Vermont occupies over nine thousand square miles; Baltimore, about ninety-two square miles. The police in Baltimore face very different challenges than here; but the Fourth Amendment doesn’t take up much room. Lisa Chalidze is chair of the criminal justice division and assistant professor of criminal justice at College of St. Joseph in Rutland, Vt.

Every year at RCHS we care for more than 900 cats and kittens and they are all looking for loving homes. There are many benefits to adopting a cat and before you know it they’ve become members of your family. Cats are very entertaining and will keep you laughing with their playful antics. They also love to cuddle and get lots of well deserved attention. Having a cat around can lower your blood pressure and provide companionship for many years. They can also be independent and will do well left alone while you’re at work. With so many benefits we hope you will adopt at least one! Please stop by the shelter and fall in love with a cat this month. Call the Adoption Center at 802-483-6700 or visit our website at www.rchsvt.org for more information. LILA 2 year old.

I
’m not very smart and have few original ideas. Others keep me well supplied and I sometimes pass them on. Once becoming a full time area resident, I soon discovered there is something special about this spot on God’s good earth. I don’t need to mention the lake, the mountains, the rivers and all the local flora and fauna. They are a given when you visit or reside here. However, there are many additional ingredients that constitute what we call our “quality of life.” We touted them in the ‘90s when we tried desperately to save the Air Force base. I am grateful for this space to talk about other things that by Gordie Little we sometimes take for granted. I’m old, so nostalgia is a way of life. When I began a long radio career, I swept into town with an ego that made me present myself (as my mother used to tell me) as far too big for my britches. People began to call and told me to “get down off your high horse” (another of my mother’s phrases) and join them at ground level. They said it so lovingly that I immediately began to develop a new persona that embraced something my preacher dad had tried in vain to instill in me: humility. I realized that my perceived importance was nil and I should look for goodness in others. Toward that end, I decided to call myself “Gordie Little, Who’s He?” on the air and explained that I didn’t matter nearly as much as those who were listening. The faucet of North Country love was thus opened full force. We ran successful street drives raising tens of thousands for worthy causes. We embraced individuals and organizations that were dedicated to helping others. Any time a need was pointed out, it was fulfilled. It happened, not just once, but over and over. It was always amazing and wonderful for me. When we asked for contributions, businesses and individuals and organizations responded quickly. Small children emptied their piggy banks and brought their pennies to us. I often shed tears of joy. What a marvelous place to live. I’m writing this on my 78th birthday and I’m still feeling the love—not for me, but for those helping in the search for two escaped killers. Joining our beloved corrections officers from here and all over the state are New York State Troopers, Homeland Security, FBI and more. We began wishing there was some way we could let all these people know how much we appreciated their dedication. Some searchers remained in the thick woods and swamps for 36 hours without sleep. Others manned roadblocks in searing heat and torrential rains. I listened and watched the love coming back to them as people began delivering food and drinks and other amenities to them directly where they were working. Businesses sent everything from toiletries to pizzas and Michigans with and without onions. Rooms were donated, warm socks and other items were forthcoming. But, what could we do collectively as a show of our gratitude? Facebook follower Dawn Laundry had an idea: ribbons. We could put ribbons on our homes and fences and cars. It was reminiscent of the yellow ribbons in the Vietnam era when we sang with Tony Orland and Dawn in a song called “Tie a Yellow Ribbon ‘Round the Old Oak Tree.” This time, blue was the color of choice because of blue uniforms on many of those involved. We were pleased to take the idea and run with it. Soon, the stores were busy selling ribbon; people were cutting up old blue clothing and making bows of their blue neckties. To say that I was personally moved by this outpouring of love, would be an understatement. It was and is awesome and wonderful. We all hope and pray that by the time you read this that the search is over; but in case it is not, we urge you to make your own blue bows and put them out where our heroes can see them. Thank you in advance for making this region an outstanding place to live and work and visit and LOVE.

Montcalm Mile expects to draw record field Registration now open; 400 runners anticipated TICONDEROGA N.Y. — A record field is expected for the 2015 Montcalm Mile. “The race grows in popularity every year,” Fred Herbst, race director, said. “We’ve had a record number of participants each of the last five years. With July 4th falling on a Saturday this year, we anticipate about 400 runners this summer. “The Montcalm Mile has become a great community tradition,” he said. “It’s rare to have an event that features elite athletes, recreational runners, children and families. It gets bigger and better every year.” Part of Ticonderoga’s “Best Fourth in the North” celebration, registration for the Montcalm Mile is now open. Runners can save money and time by registering in advance online at montcalmmile.racewire.com or at the LaChute Road Runners Club website — www.lachute.us Entry fees will increase race day. The 29th annual one mile road race, held July 4th just prior to Ticonderoga’s Best Fourth in the North parade, will again offer prize money —adding masters and veterans classes this year — in an effort to attract another top field
of competitors. With a men’s course record of 3 minutes, 54 seconds, the Montcalm Mile is believed to be the fastest mile anywhere in New York and Vermont, outside New York City. “Our goal is make the race one of the most competitive events in the North Country while remaining a fun, family-friendly race,” Herbst said. To accomplish that goal the Montcalm Mile will award prize money to men and women in three classes — open elite, masters elite for ages 40-49 and veterans elite for ages 50 and older. The open elite class will pay $300 to the men’s and women’s winners with $200 to second place and $100 to third place. In the masters and veterans classes first place men and women will receive $150 with second place getting $100 and third place $50. Runners must register in the elite divisions to be eligible for prize money. Runners in the recreational class will be eligible for a raffle. Kinetic Running of Plattsburgh will provide a free pair of Altra men’s and women’s shoes for a random drawing of bib numbers. Two pair of shoes will be awarded. The Montcalm Mile course records are 3:54 set by Lee Berube in the men’s race and 4:43 set by Sara Dunham in the women’s race.
It’s a downhill course that virtually assures runners of personal bests and attracts most of the region’s top athletes. Also attracting runners is the fact the race is run minutes prior to Ticonderoga’s annual Fourth of July parade, which means hundreds of spectators line the course offering encouragement. The Montcalm Mile, the largest participation event in Ticonderoga every year, will team with RaceWire for computerized chip timing and scoring in 2015. The 29th annual Montcalm Mile will offer $2,400 in prize money this To facilitate the scoring July 4th in Ticonderoga. The Montcalm Mile, the largest participation system, runners are asked to event in Ticonderoga every year, is expecting nearly 400 runners in register for the race online at 2015. montcalmmile.racewire.com or Race information can also be found online at the LaChute Road Runners at the LaChute Road Runners Club website Club website — www.lachute.us — www.lachute.us and at www.best4thintheLimited race day registration starts at noon north.com/ at the starting line at the intersection of Wicker The race will start at 1:45 p.m. Street and Race Track Road. For entry informaMedals will be presented to all finishers. Age tion contact Herbst at 13 Lindbergh Landing, group results will be posted on the web site Ticonderoga 12883 or by Email at fherbst@nywww.lachute.us cap.rr.com.
